Boob problem...

So...I'm not terribly shy about body parts and whatnot, but I feel kinda weird asking this, but everyone on here has always been super nice and understanding of my silly questions o^_^o

So, lately I've been noticing something about my boobs: My right one is waaaaay bigger then the other one. And I know that everything on everyone's body is going to be disproportionate to a certain degree, but this is noticeably huger. I have 36 DD's, and so ever since I started wearing lower cut shirts, people have pointed them out, blah blah blah, and I've gotten used to it and already have my little black book of "My Face Is Up Here" comments ready to go haha
But now I'm starting to feel terribly uncomfortable in my own skin because of it because now I notice it and don't like it at all that one is so much bigger then the other.

I don't know what to do now about it Happy
I've been wanting to get a reduction for a while now (I'm actually quite small) but I can't afford it. Does anyone on here maybe know any tips or tricks on how to make my right boob (my bigger one) look more like my left one (the "smaller" of the two).

Thanks y'all for your help Happy

Sometimes a breast that gets bigger and then shrinks over the course of a month is attributed to cysts developing in the breasts. If one breast is always larger you can always get a gel insert for the smaller breast until you can afford the reduction. I don't know if you could buy one, but I know that alot of women before getting a breast enlargement will be given the gel inserts so they can "test them out"

Hmmm...I think that it just kinda got bigger one day (not literally haha) and never shrunk down.
I really don't want to make my other boob bigger, just cuz I don't terribly mind the size, but that's something to look into, I suppose :o Maybe if they look symmetrical, they might look...nicer? haha
Because visually, when I wear lower cut shirts, it's awkward. Like, one boob is just like "OH, HI GUYS! Happy!!!" and the other is just sitting there, quite and calm like.
Ugh...I hate boobs ;_;

I would def go with finding some sort of insert for the shy boobie, lol. just to make them look the same Happy and then I would make a Doctors appointment, they would totally be able to give you some good ideas on what it might be and what you can do to remedy the situation ^_^
Gooooood Luck!

Everyone has one boob larger than the other. My boyfriend pointed out to me the other day that my left book is larger than my right, somehing that I hadn't ever bothered to notice.

I've been looking and thinking about getting a breast reduction myself lately and if I had insurance I would in a heart beat. I am pretty sure insurance would cover my getting a reduction because I have back pains that I can attribute to the size of my breasts. Anyhow, I have heard of people getting breast reductions in just one breast to even them out and that may be an option for you, I am sure it is less expensive than a full reduction on both breasts.

But the insert sounds like a really good quick fix to me also.

If you wear push-up bras, cut the padding out of the right cup. If you wear thinner bras, try to find a way of tucking the bigger boob down into the bra cup more.

I'm in the DD club as well, and sometimes if I'm going to a place where I really don't want guys to look at my chest, I'll tuck my boobs into the side of the bra, behind the underwire.

A sport's bra might help them look more similar in size, too, and that would be a cheap fix if it works.

Are you taking any medication like the pill? When I was on the pill my boobs went up by a whole cup size. You could look around for a minimiser bra - I had a quick look on google and found these http://tinyurl.com/bobpm74 It may also be worth a trip to see you doctor just in case it is a cyst or something health related. Also in the UK you can get breast reductions on the NHS. I'm not sure what the criteria is but a friend had one done and it did loads for her confidence. I think she went from an E cup down to a C cup.

wear a tight bra like a sports bra or a tube top cut down to bra size over your bra. Basically go to the bra section of a department store and get some holly wood tape its magic stuff

you could get a padded bra and take the padding out of one cup or stuff the smaller one. i have 30H and it's just a pain trying to find ones that fit that aren't white/maternity/nursing ones. i use bravissimo, but they are expensive. i have one bigger then the other but i don't do anything about it, just wearing a hoodie hides it

Perfect symmetry doesn't exist in humans without cosmetic surgery.

One of mine is only slightly bigger than the other, and isn't visually noticible, but my best advice is to play around with neckline lengths.
I'm somewhere between an E and a G cup (depends on the brand ARGH), but depending on what I wear, friends with DDs are often assumed to have bigger boobs. For me, if I want to make my boobs look bigger on the whole, I go for a considerably low neckline, or a high necked t-shirt. If I want to make them look smaller, I go for a neckline where the lowest part of the neckline just hits the top of my natural cleavage and no lower, and not much higher. I find this always makes my boobs appear smaller, even though they aren't - a trick I learnt when I was age 12 and a DD cup XD

So there's this trick I learned from a friend who liked cleavage.

Take a tube sock and roll it up and put it at the bottom of your bra cup and (sorry bout this part) grab your boob right lift it up and set it on top of it. you may have situate the sock so it isn't obvious. You could always experiment with different size socks to get everything even. Sometimes it take a little bit to get it right so you can't tell there's something stuck in your bra that isn't you. Since you're not a itty bitty titty spokeswoman it'll be easier for you.

That'll save you from cutting a bra or worrying about what's gonna work whenever you go shopping. Not to mention they stay put really well, better than inserts ever did for me. Me, I love a good push up bra, but they're not always whats clean that day. This tricks works for an A cup and up.

I wanna say that my friend learned about it from that playboy bunny show, but I can't be sure...and hey I'd trust them on bobby stuff, they're all about that life.

go to a doctor and have her check it. also buy a bra that has the cup size of the larger breast and put in some sort of gel padding with the smaller one

Its natural.... no ones body is proportionate and unfortunately it can be noticeable in some area's more then others.

Breast growth can have to do with hormone levels which as you know are temperamental and can have many factors that contribute to change. I know someone who had a miscarriage and the overflow and stoppage or hormones resulted in asymmetrical boobs. Talk to your doctor if your concerned, you can even get on the pill to regulate your hormones.

You can always try push-up bras with removable padding to even things out. I know places also sell "cutlets" which are gel inserts to wear with your normal bras.
